Waiting weeks for a GP appointment is frustrating. At Mayfield Clinic we aim to offer same‑day GP appointments so you can get prompt, professional care without unnecessary delay. Many patients from Saffron Walden travel to our Cambridge practice (around a 30‑minute drive) to see our GPs the same day — and because we keep private patient records, we offer continuity with the same named doctor when you return.
Book online using the Saffron Walden location page or our main site Book now button. We prioritise appointment requests and will usually offer a same‑day or next‑available slot. Members can book directly by phone or WhatsApp and receive priority for last‑minute appointments.
Our GPs handle the full range of common problems you’d see an NHS GP for: coughs and colds, headaches, musculoskeletal pain, mental health and mood disorders, tiredness, skin conditions, sexual health and UTIs. We can also provide prescriptions, arrange blood tests, make referrals and offer second opinions.
For details on how we prescribe privately, see our prescriptions page. For referrals, including to local Cambridge specialists, see our referrals information.
Patients who expect to use our service regularly often choose our Membership plan. The Core Subscription gives you a set number of annual appointments for a monthly fee. Members get a direct phone and WhatsApp booking line, prioritised same‑day slots and a maintained private record so your named GP knows your history. Learn if membership is right for you on our membership page.
“Many patients from Saffron Walden tell us they value both speed and the continuity of seeing the same clinician — that’s exactly what our service provides.”
Although we promote our services to Saffron Walden, consultations are provided from our Cambridge location. Travel is straightforward by car or public transport; our Cambridge clinic is well placed to receive patients from Saffron Walden. See the Cambridge location page for details and directions: Mayfield Clinic — Cambridge.
Saffron Walden’s market square and historic lanes make the town a lovely place to live — but when health concerns arise, speed matters. Many locals find it reassuring to see a private GP quickly and then stroll round the market afterwards if they’re feeling better. If you prefer, we can arrange telemedicine or an in‑clinic appointment at Cambridge on the same day.
To book a private GP appointment today, use the Book now button on our site via the Saffron Walden page. Members should use the Members’ phone or WhatsApp line for prioritised booking. For information about accessing our services, see How to access our GP services.
